Hi All Looking to maybe manufacture some custom horn covers🤔🤔 Just had a play with Logan on his new dual extrusion printer using John’s BEET horn cover as a test program and looks pretty cool😎 This example is in blue and white materials Thinking the horn covers will be in black with a white logo of your choice (YPVS RDLC Yamaha) logo etc and cost would be around £20 posted Or if anybody want something completely in another colour this could be an option too but may involved a little more cost Obviously I will first model the first examples for review in black and white but would like to gauge what interest there would be Catch up soon Best wishes Al and Logan

Wow, that looks amazing Al. Superb work. I'd say the time between xmas and NY was a productive time for you, not many who can say that!

Hi all Ok what does everybody think please for the first concept for a black horn cover with a red YPVS logo The logo is raised 1mm above a black horn cover “base blank” Or do you want the logo sub flush below the horn cover top by 1mm. or again a third option is to have the logo flush with the top surface like this so it is easy to clean as there is no crevices to hold dirt? Obviously this is a first concept with the other designs to follow hopefully later in the week but wanted to “test the water” with the first concept review to see if people want the logo raised, sub flush or level with the front surface Any comments welcome as long as they are nice ones Best wishes and stay safe Al

That would be perfect
Just enough to make it 3d rather than just a decal stuck on 👍

Hi all Ok Logan tried to print this horn cover last night Really pleased with the first attempt but its not 100% to my liking for cosmetic looks and it did lift slightly of the build plate during the print process Off now to both tweak the model and solve the print issue (replace the current bed supplied with the printer with a glass bed) and then will give it another go Catch up soon Best wishes Al

Hi all Ok to put Steve out of his misery sorted all the niggles and printed another one I know it’s not a PV bike but looks pretty damn cool😎 And now Logan has got his enthusiasm back we will start to sort orders out for those that has requested the YPVS type and will look to start modelling up one for the non PV crowd Cost will be £20 but that will include 1st class post which I think is reasonable and all funds this time are going to Logan and not me☹️☹️ In the meantime any questions please feel free to ask Catch up soon and sorry for the delay with this project Stay safe all Al and Logan
